It's a MFF signature card case, style 60355.Hi everyone,
I picked up what I think is an authentic coach item at a thrift store. It was cheap so I took a chance before researching its authenticity. It does not have any tags or serial # in it. Does anyone know if it's authentic? If so are there any similar ones on ebay or poshmark? Any help is greatly appreciated
Here's a listing that sold in August:

Both items are similar but there's a slight difference in the size of the signature patterns between the two styles
I believe the signature pattern on @eric4sale's item is the same size as 60355.
Thank you all for your help. I'm a novice when it comes to identifying these items. They all look so similar to the untrained eye.
Saw a photo of this bag and absolutely love it. Does anyone know what this style is called? TIA
Welcome to TPF.
This thread is for naming items that one already knows is authentic. There's an authentication thread for items for which you aren't sure of authenticity.
Authenticate This COACH - **see first post for format**
For your bag, I don't see any red flags but we need to see more than just a picture of the creed. Refer to post 1, page 1 of the "Authenticate This COACH" for the required pictures and information and repost on that thread.
Hello, just hoping someone could ID this Vintage Coach style, sorry the listing doesn't have the best pictures. I had seen another one in black a while back, but I can not find the link to that one in my bookmarks.
What I remember is the xxxx-xxx style numbers in the creed, that it said Leatherware and Made in the United States, the front flap had a snap and there was an open pocket, a zippered compartment and inside the usual zippered pocket, the hardware that held the strap was not the regular type but elongated, the strap was not detachable but had a buckle for adjustment. I am dissappointed I lost the link, I was really intrigued by this bag, and it was not easy to find another one.
TIA

It's from the Manhattan collection. Probably 4127 museum bag. From around 1993-1994.
Here's one with a creed: https://www.ebay.com/itm/COACH-Muse...h=item5211cb151c:g:hesAAOSw4-lakJXK:rk:1:pf:0
Thank you again and again, your replies are always so helpful and fast, I never heard of the Manhattan collection, what a museum bag is considered, a crossbody or shoulder bag? I love learning about Coach and its history.
You're welcome! We don't have a lot of information about it. I only have one catalog page that says Manhattan series at the bottom of the page. I think it was a subset of the Lightweights. I think the straps on most bags at the time were long enough to wear crossbody.Thank you again and again, your replies are always so helpful and fast, I never heard of the Manhattan collection, what a museum bag is considered, a crossbody or shoulder bag?

From the Manhattan Series intro page in the Holiday 1993 catalog (see the first thumbnail) it sounds like Whateve is right about it being based on the Lightweight line.
In this thumbnail of the catalog page for the Museum Bag it gives the strap length as 41 inches, which seems like it refers to the end-to-end strap length, and the last 2 inches of the strap doesn't have holes for the buckle which means the wearable strap length is about 39-40 inches maximum with an approximate drop length of maybe 18 or 19 inches. If the 41-inch measurement is the wearble length, add another inch or two. (Coach's measurements sometimes weren't terribly accurate either). Someone short and slender could probably wear it cross-body, but from personal experience someone tall or "fluffy" might find it a bit short to be comfortably worn that way. Even the width of a bag at the top between the strap attachments can affect how comfortable it is when worn cross-body. I've lost count of how many bags I ordered sight unseen and ended up getting rid of because the strap was just a bit too short for crossbody wear on my rather zaftig bod.
